What Gutmann does

Gutmann GmbH is a privately held, family-run multi-energy provider headquartered in Innsbruck, Austria, founded in 1960 by Albert and Katharina Gutmann as a regional heating oil dealer. The company has grown into Western Austria's largest private energy supplier, organized around three operational pillars: Energy (Ökostrom/green electricity and natural gas supply in Tirol and Vorarlberg), Mobility (100+ gas stations operated under the GUTMANN, DISK, ENI, OMV, SHELL, and MPREIS brands across seven Austrian provinces, plus emerging hydrogen, HVO-Diesel, LPG, and CNG offerings), and Heat (heating oil, pellets, wood briquettes, firewood, and LPG distributed through an owned truck fleet of approximately 45 vehicles, a 10,000-ton pellet storage facility in Hall in Tirol, and a wood gasification plant with combined heat and power). Subsidiary da emobil GmbH (founded 2017 as a JV with Fiegl+Spielberger) operates EV charging infrastructure, while wholly-owned GUTMANN Energiesysteme GmbH (founded 2019) delivers integrated heat pumps, photovoltaic, battery storage, and heating/cooling solutions.

The business model blends transactional fuel revenue at the station network with recurring subscription revenue from residential and commercial gas and electricity contracts, hardware sales through GUTMANN Energiesysteme, and quote-based bulk heating fuel delivery. Go-to-market is multi-channel: direct-to-consumer via 100+ stations and a customer portal, channel partnerships with major fuel brands (ENI, OMV, SHELL, MPREIS, dopgas), and a sales-led approach for B2B fleet cards, bulk heating, and energy contracts. Customer segments span residential consumers, commercial/SMB fleet operators, and mobility customers across Austria. Strategic priorities in 2023–2026 — HVO-Diesel, the first operational hydrogen refueling station in Austria (Villach, 2026), and biomass CHP — indicate a deliberate transition of the legacy fuel portfolio toward lower-carbon alternatives while preserving the owned distribution and logistics backbone that anchors the franchise.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• BP: Global integrated energy major that previously operated Austrian gas stations acquired by GUTMANN in 2007. Comparable fuel retail and EV charging business but BP exited Austrian retail to refocus globally.
• Shell: Global integrated energy major operating Shell-branded stations in Austria via GUTMANN's partnership since 2012. Comparable retail fuel, EV charging, and hydrogen mobility offerings but at global scale and as a broader incumbent.
• ENI: Italian integrated energy major operating ENI-branded stations in Austria via GUTMANN's partnership since 2012. Comparable retail fuel and increasingly renewable energy offerings but at international scale.

Regional players

• Energie AG Oberösterreich: Upper Austrian multi-utility offering electricity, natural gas, heating, and waste services. Comparable integrated energy business model serving a different Austrian region with significant renewable energy investments.
• EVN AG: Lower Austrian energy and environmental services provider active in electricity, natural gas, heating, and increasingly in solar/wind. Comparable integrated regional utility model with broader geographic reach.
• Wien Energie: Vienna municipal utility providing electricity, natural gas, district heating, and mobility services across Austria's largest urban market. Comparable integrated energy business model at much larger scale.
• Salzburg AG: Regional multi-utility serving Salzburg and surrounding areas with electricity, natural gas, heating, and mobility services. Comparable integrated energy model but operates in a different Austrian geography.

Direct peers

• TIWAG (Tiroler Wasserkraft AG): State-owned Tyrolean energy utility providing electricity, heating, and increasingly e-mobility services across the same Western Austria geography. The most direct regional peer with overlapping customer base in Tirol.
• OMV: Austrian integrated oil and gas major operating the largest gas station network in Austria. Directly comparable in retail fuel, heating fuels, and increasingly in hydrogen mobility and renewable energy — also a brand partner of GUTMANN.

Others

• dopgas: Austrian LPG supplier partnering with GUTMANN since 2012 for tank and cylinder gas in Tirol and Vorarlberg. Comparable as a complementary regional energy supplier and partner rather than direct competitor.
